Business Outlook

Pros

Good flexibility and opportunity to excel.

Cons

Depending on job can be a grind. They will push you to innovate and theres an expectation to create value for the customer, which could be a good thing. But the push is to monetize these ideas. New projects will get alot of resources once the environment is stable thats when the cuts begin. Work out your salary going in.. Dont depend on raises/bonuses. Raises dont keep up with cost of living. And thats if you get one.

3 month non-negotiable notice period beware

Pros

nothing worth talking about. good campus. decent cafeteria.

Cons

recently, they have made the notice period 3 months to control attrition. this makes it very difficult to switch over since no company is willing to wait 3 months for an employee to join. so you will be stuck with hcl at low salary and find it very difficult to switch jobs. they dont reduce notice period even for people on bench or those not on project or non billable. 3 month notice period beware! dont join if you want career growth and increment. also, the increment they give is max 5% and that too only for a few chosen ones. there is no increment worth talking about.
